hey all, i ordered a recertified (not used, just means a lesser warranty) 9800GTX from newegg because it only cost me $5 (sold old gpu on ebay for $125,GTX was only $129.99) and after i installed it i opened gpu-z and looked at the clock speeds. now a normal 9800GTX clock speeds are 675/1100/1688 stock. my "stock" 9800GTX clocks were at 770/1150/1944. they were set at that right out of the box literally. those clock speeds were higher than a GTX+. then i thought maybe they gave me a GTX+ by accident (better for me,lol) but there is no "+" on the card so it is a normal 9800GTX but why such high clocks? i down clocked to match the GTX+ clocks and thats where they will stay but again why such high clocks? i just looked on evga at their 9800GTX cards and these clocks even (just by a little) surpassed a 9800GTX+ superclocked card.
also in gpu-z it says the default clocks are 770/1150/1944? i dont get that either. did i get a bad card? or is this normal/ok? it runs fine and cool but those clocks are bothering me.
